CLIMB TO THE HEAVENS TODAY IN FINAL FANTASY XIV PATCH 4.35

LONDON (3rd July, 2018) – FINAL FANTASY® XIV: Stormblood™ continues to provide unique and exciting content to players with today’s launch of Patch 4.35. This update debuts the latest Deep Dungeon, Heaven-on-High, the next chapter in the Hildibrand quest series, as well as new items and system updates.

Heaven-on-High challenges players to join fellow adventurers and traverse through a 100-floor dungeon that grows in difficulty with each level. The content also features a reworked leveling system specific to the Deep Dungeon in addition to special rewards for those who can reach the highest floor.

Today’s patch also features the latest questline in the adventures of Hildibrand, in which the inspector extraordinaire investigates crimes perpetrated by the Wolf Burglar in the Far East. Additionally, new emotes, minions, along with a new hairstyle and mount have been added, including one runner-up design from the Hairstyle Design Contest.

Coinciding with the release of Patch 4.35 is the start of The Feast Regional Championship 2018, a series of official player versus player tournaments being held in North America, Europe, and Japan (to determine the champions within each region). The preliminaries period will begin on Tuesday, July 3rd and continue until Monday, August 13th.
